Answer 1

MaKo,

If I understand correctly you want to save a password securely. To save the password securely, you should save it to the keychain, using the Security.framework

Fortunately, there is a great wrapper for the iPhone Keychain. It's called SFHFKeychainUtils.

You can get it here.

You can find some more info here too.

Answer 2

If you're using a settings bundle to integrate with the Settings application, this is not supported functionality (see Implementing Application Preferences in Apple's iOS Application Programming Guide).
